20231206 Dev Meeting

General:

Notes

#2063 Add additional support for parachute
- Julian pointed out most of these things are in existing messages.
#2055 development: add setter/getters for torque and thrust setpoints
- Chase up Silvan and Leonard again?
#1849 MAV_CMD_DO_SET_HOME - add home position roll/pitch
- Needs minValue/maxValue - have pinged James again but intend to merge.
#2050 common.xml: Allow FLIGHT_INFORMATION times to be either since epoch or boot
- We think extensions. Late suggestion by Peter is to just update behaviour to match PX4. Live with horrible names.

We'd still like action on these:

#544 Fix up enum generation
- ? James passing to PeterB - we need a clear direction for next steps.
1946 Convrnience function(s?) blindly copy 16bytes, - even when less are provided... resulting in somehow corrupt packets.
- Legitimate problem, but we have put enough on PeterB this week.
generate WIP warnings on the use of WIP messages in C code #240 - get it in as "default off WIP test". That is useful for Beat.
- Fixed up but stalled again.
- Legitimate problem, but we have put enough on PeterB this week.

FYI

#1919 RADIO_RC_CHANNELS message
- Julian not sure why needed (i.e. vs overrides).
- Leaving alone for now - no point investing until someone wants to implement.
#2029 common.xml: MISSION_CURRENT progress notification
- Waiting on Nick to address questions/take up again. But won't be mission specific
#2048 Re-use param index 3 for Fence Action
- FYI paused/closed for now
#2049 No way to get current ROI from vehicle
- Paused until Nick regains time.

FYI - These went in:
